Campsight electric outlets
When a sight says it has 50 Amp service, do they usually have both the 50 amp outlet, and the 30 am outlet in the same post? My first trip out last weekend had 30 amp posts, and there were also 20 amp...

All 50A and 30A sites will also have a 20A receptacle.

OP, each campground is different. In my experience, the majority of 50 amp sites will also have 30 amp hookups, but not all. Furthermore, the majority of 30 amp sites will have a standard 20 amp hookup as well, but not all.
And that in itself, because this is an international website, is incorrect as well. :W Here in Canada one would be hard pressed to find any 20 amp service as that's not not a standard configuration one would normally find anywhere in this country, including homes. So-called "standard" configuration would be 30 amp & 15 amp service, some 50 amp service mostly in private campgrounds, but certainly not 20 amp service, so for anyone traveling up here from the US shouldn't expect to see it. And I too know of a few 50 amp only sites. More to the point though, there's just no reason every RV owner with a camper wired for 30 amp service and who ever camps on an electric campsite shouldn't carry a 30 amp Female > 15 amp Male dogbone (which will also plug into 20 amp service) and 30 amp Female > 50 amp Male dogbone - that way you're covered for any eventuality one may find in the US or here in Canada. :)
